Commit a998d43423 claimed to introduce negative offset support to x86 jit,
but it couldn't be working, since at the time of the execution
of LD+ABS or LD+IND instructions via call into
bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper() the %edx (3rd argument of this func)
had junk value instead of access size in bytes (1 or 2 or 4).
Store size into %edx instead of %ecx (what original commit intended to do)

Now the helper function from filter.c for negative offsets is exported,
it can be used it in the jit to handle negative offsets.
First modify the asm load helper functions to handle:
- know positive offsets
- know negative offsets
- any offset
then the compiler can be modified to explicitly use these helper
when appropriate.
This fixes the case of a negative X register and allows to lift
the restriction that bpf programs with negative offsets can't
be jited.
